Fangraphs actually shows his velocity up across the board from a season ago, slightly, and pretty much in line with where his velo was in 2011, when he was awesome.
I'm not saying you give him a big deal, but it would be worth kicking the tires.
As for Beltran, if you can limit him to about 130 games, you're going to get pretty great production from him. .300/25/80/.340 OBP/.500 SLG
With Lough and Dyson, that shouldn't be an issue at all. I like the idea from the standpoint of improving the offense. If Zimmer or Duffy or Ventura sparkles down the stretch, I'd be more open to that.
As it is, I'd rather stick with a Dyson/Maxwell platoon in RF and focus on adding another SP and a 2B.
